As some of you may have noticed, Monobjc is under heavy development to support the newly released version of Mac OS X 10.7, also known as Lion. Thanks to the architecture redesign performed under the version 3.0 (the native runtime), the transition is smooth and easy. A preview release of Monobjc […]

Image that your .NET application uses an assembly. When compiled, the application references the exact version of that assembly. If a new minor of this assembly is installed, your application will not use it unless a policy told her so. This is fine in most cases, as it avoids the DLL hell issue. […]

It is been a while since I blogged about Monobjc. Some people may have thought that the project was in sleep (or worst dead), but it is not.

The process of packaging a .NET application for Mac OS X basically follows 4 steps: […]

Monobjc is more than one year old, and the time has come to go beyond the Monobjc bridge. In order to develop the .NET programming on Mac OS X, a bridge is not enough. A whole development ecosystem is needed, so any new developer will have all the necessary tools to leverage the power of .NET on Mac […]

A while ago, Luke Hoban implemented a ray-tracing sample application. I have made a Cocoa port of this application by using the Monobjc bridge, and it was over in less than one hour. Here is a screenshot: You can download the source code as part of Monobjc. […]
